Jadela Prepares for El Indio 1-H Eagle Ford Formation Well Completion

CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwire - July 27, 2011) - Jadela Oil Corp. ("Jadela") (TSX VENTURE:JOC) is pleased to announce that on July 15, 2011, Jadela finished drilling its El Indio 1-H well into the Eagle Ford shale formation on its property located in Maverick County, Texas. Jadela has installed the Packers Plus Energy Services Inc. Open Hole Multi-Stage completion liner system in the hole in preparation for the propane fraccing and completion of the well. Jadela expects to complete and test the well in conjunction with the construction of the collection and gathering well site facilities and equipment. Production is expected to commence as soon as the facilities are installed and operational. Jadela is in the process of outsourcing the construction of the pipeline, the battery equipment and the pipeline hookup to a 6" inch pipeline close by operated by West Texas Gas.

Prior to drilling, Jadela had access to 3D seismic covering its lands. The 3D was evaluated and used in the drilling decisions. As part of the drilling process, Jadela drilled a pilot hole. Jadela logged and side wall cored segments of the 183 ft. Lower Eagle Ford formation. The cores have been sent to Core Laboratories LP to be evaluated. The well was drilled on a "tight hole" basis and as such specific well information is not available to the public at this time.
